Frequently asked questions
What can I add to a PDF here?
Text in three fonts, images, boxes, ellipses, highlighter strips, freehand strokes, symbols and sticky-note comments - placed by clicking on the page, then dragged and resized.
Can I start a new PDF from scratch?
Yes. Choose New blank PDF and pick the page size and orientation: an empty page opens in the editor, ready for text, pictures, shapes, a signature or form fields. Add a page after any page, or delete one, from the Insert menu or the page thumbnails. The document is made in your browser, like everything else here. Text sits in boxes and doesn't flow from page to page, so for a long text write it in Word and convert it: Word to PDF.
Can I correct text that is already in the PDF?
Yes - click the text and retype it: its paragraph flows again, in the document's own font wherever that font can spell the new text. A picture already in the file can be clicked too, then moved, resized, turned, replaced or removed.
Is the document uploaded?
Nothing is uploaded: the file is opened and processed inside your browser and never leaves your device. Close the tab and it is gone.
Will my additions show in other PDF readers?
Yes. Text, shapes and images are drawn into the page itself, and comments become real PDF annotations that PDF viewers list and let others reply to.
Will my comments show up in other PDF viewers?
Yes. A comment becomes a real annotation with its popup, so PDF viewers list it in their comments panel, open it on a click and let the next person reply. A drawn box could do none of that.
Can I use this to hide sensitive text?
No - and this matters. A box drawn over a name covers it on screen while the text stays in the file, extractable by anyone. Use Redact instead: it cuts the text out of the page's content and repaints the area inside images before anything is drawn on top.
Can I use a Word, Excel or PowerPoint file, or a photo, instead of a PDF?
Yes. Drop in a .docx, .xlsx or .pptx file or an image (JPG, PNG, WebP...) and it is turned into a PDF in your browser as it arrives - an image onto an A4 page - then handled like any other PDF; nothing is uploaded. The conversion is our own, so the result can differ slightly from Office's own PDF export: a font may be substituted and charts are left out. The file list shows a warning when something couldn't be carried over.
